We’ve all read how the best multi-vitamins are prenatal supplements. After all, if it is good enough to keep a baby growing optimally and keep the mother healthy, isn’t it good enough to keep you in top form, both inside and out?

When taking a prenatal vitamin strictly for the beauty benefits, it’s important to find a balanced multi-vitamin. A prenatal vitamin is often superior to the popular ‘hair and nail vitamin formulas’ because these targeted formulas tend to omit necessary minerals for overall health, including those related to optimal brain functioning. One prenatal vitamin we like for its’ beauty and brains support is Zahler Prenatal + DHA 300 Premium Multivitamin.

WHAT IS IN THE ZAHLER PRENATAL + DHA 300 PREMIUM MULTIVITAMIN FORMULA

One of the things we love about this formula is that the amounts of each vitamin are synergistic with the others so that it will work optimally in your system. Check out the lineup within this Zahler Prenatal+DHA multivitamin to see how it supports beauty, body, vision and brain:

DHA is vital for neurological development in utero, but it is also crucial for maintaining brain and eye health throughout life. If you do not eat fatty fish three times a week or regularly eat walnuts or chia seeds, DHA likely needs to be supplemented.

Vitamin A supports the normal formation and maintenance of the heart, lungs, and kidneys

Vitamin C supports immune system health and new cell production, notably including skin and hair. Vitamin C is the building block for collagen, the support structure of skin that staves off wrinkles, discoloration, dull skin and facial sagging

Iron: necessary for hair growth, energy, healthy blood cell production and the production of the entire suite of the Vitamin B’s.

Copper builds collagen. It is often paired with zinc for brain support and energy production

Zinc helps balance hormones and battles fatigue

Manganese is paired with iron to improve bone structure.

Iodine makes thyroid hormones, and during pregnancy, it supports proper bone and brain development

Chromium slows the loss of calcium

Choline is like a B Vitamin in function; the body uses it to create DNA, for nerve signaling, and for detoxification. It’s also used for acetylcholine function, an anti-aging neurotransmitter

Selenium is an anti-oxidant that supports metabolism function

Lutein Zeaxanthin Complex is the optimal vitamin pairing for vision health. Some report improvement in their vision or the delay of the deterioration of existing eye health problems. This is an expensive vitamin combination in of itself and is rarely seen in a multi-vitamin, much less in dosages significant enough to be effective. We’ve seen just a Lutein/Zeaxanthin combos as seen in this dosage cost more than this entire supplement does.

Zahler Prenatal +DHA Supplement Facts

These are crucial vitamins and minerals, but they must be taken in the correct dosage. Too little is ineffective, too much can be dangerous. The supplement packaging says:

“Zahler Prenatal+DHA is a balanced, synergistic formula that provides a curated compilation of nutrients your developing baby requires in the optimum ratios for absorption, metabolism, and safety ”

This is important since the National Institute of Health states that interactions among supplement ingredients can be harmful if the proper dosing is not observed and controlled. For this reason, it’s best to take a pre-natal formula produced by a careful and conscientious manufacturer such as Zahler, who has achieved high scores on product purity, nutritional value and ingredient safety with independent evaluators such as Labdoor.

MORE PRODUCT FEATURES

The Zahler Prenatal+DHA formula is free of gluten and contains no artificial dyes or additives.

EASY TO SWALLOW: The softgel capsules are slick and not too big so I found them to be very easy to swallow. I do have problems with larger pills and found my former multi-B vitamin often too difficult to swallow, even though it was coated. These are no problem to swallow even on the first try.
